“That two-timin’ son of a . . .”
I hiss under my breath as I stare at the headline—and the
compromising picture accompanying it—splashed in vivid
color across the front page of the gossip rag displayed
prominently in the checkout line at my supermarket. For the
second time in two months, it’s a picture of my “boyfriend”
locked in an unmistakably passionate embrace with another
woman, except this time she’s wearing a giant black strap-on.
The edges of the paper crumple in my sweaty grip, and I
fight the urge to tear it to shreds, along with every copy sitting
on the rack in front of me.
He’s going to destroy my career before it even has a
chance to become a reality.
One year, they said. One year in this joke of a
“relationship” and I’d earn my stripes, be all set in the world
of country music. Judge me all you want for agreeing, but
when your brand-new record label puts something like that in
the contract that will jet you out of the backwoods town you’re
dying to escape, you don’t ask questions. You sign on the
dotted line.
But reality is a cold slap in the face, and some days it hits
you when you’re standing in line at the grocery store. What
happens when they finally catch JC with a guy? His habit of
swinging both ways, but preferring men to women, is about to
become the worst-kept secret in Nashville.
I’m Holly Wix, winner of a make-me-a-star TV show, and
handpicked by the label to buoy JC’s once-impressive but now
flagging career. It didn’t seem like a big deal when they
slipped it into my contract in the beginning. What starry-eyed
girl wouldn’t be thrilled to have her name linked to a country
star?
Instead of the one-way ticket to stardom I naively
expected, I’m becoming the butt of every industry joke faster
than the guys back home can spend their paycheck on twelvepacks and scratch-offs. But I’ve got one shot at keeping this
dream career alive, and honestly, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
to save it. So this situation with JC needs to get settled before
things spiral further out of control.
Tugging the bill of my trucker hat lower, I glance around to
see if anyone has noticed me flipping out in the checkout line.
A woman behind me clucks her tongue as she pulls her
sunglasses out of her baby’s mouth.
Crap.
That cluck of her tongue was aimed at me, not the
toothless, blue-eyed, smiling baby. Surprisingly, though, the
expression on her face is sympathetic, not angry.
“Men are assholes, am I right? Being famous just makes
them bigger ones.”
I smile weakly, and she continues. “Don’t believe
everything you read in the papers, doll. They’re always ninetyfive percent bullshit. Probably Photoshopped. He should have
his head examined if he’s cheating on you.”
Snapping my gaze back to her, I read recognition all over
her face, despite my hat, glasses, complete lack of makeup,
and relatively low level of fame. I force a smile onto my face,
but it feels awkward and fake.
